#LongWayToFall "Off in the land of heroes and fablesa man would not think to declineWrapped in your arms I'd climb any mountainbut that's only half the climbFollow the treasures of darkest desireDance with Medusa, but don't look in her eyesIt's a long, long way to fall - I won't go downYou took the wrong turn after all - I won't be thereKnowin' what I know - knowin' I got to goCause I don't believeThere was a time when I could forgive youand laugh at those sad games we'd playI always thought that you were the strong oneand you'd break the walls down one dayFollow the circle, you come round againLand on my doorstep, but I can't let you inIt's a long, long way to fall - don't pull me downYou took the wrong turn after all - I won't be thereKnowin' what I know - showin' what doesn't showknowin' what I knowThat I don't believeI didn't lie when I said that I loved youbut you couldn't hope to believeYou can't come home to claim what you squanderedI've barely got room for my griefHeart of the mineshaft the sun never shinesLost in a minefield you might as well be blindIt's a long, long way to fall - I won't go downYou took the wrong train after all - I won't be thereKnowin' what I know - knowin' I've got to goknowin' what I knowThat I don't believe, and I can't conceivenow I just can't see you no more" #BillySquire

@TKramar This was written for his godson. It's in the liner notes or somewhere on his website. (I'm a long-time fan). The song broke me up the 1st time I heard it, as I gave my son up for adoption when he was 2. In fact, my son's father was in a band with Billy in the early 70s... and there are a few more connections that tied together are kind of uncanny ;-)
